Back in commit 23956703 ("xfs: inode log reservations are too
small"), the reservation size was increased to take into account the
difference in size between the in-memory BMBT block headers and the
on-disk BMDR headers. This solved a transaction overrun when logging
the inode size.
Recently, however, we've seen a number of these same overruns on
kernels with the above fix in it. All of them have been by 4 bytes,
so we must still not be accounting for something correctly.
Through inspection it turns out the above commit didn't take into
account everything it should have. That is, it only accounts for a
single log op_hdr structure, when it can actually require up to four
op_hdrs - one for each region (log iovec) that is formatted. These
regions are the inode log format header, the inode core, and the two
forks that can be held in the literal area of the inode.
This means we are not accounting for 36 bytes of log space that the
transaction can use, and hence when we get inodes in certain formats
with particular fragmentation patterns we can overrun the
transaction. Fix this by adding the correct accounting for log
op_headers in the transaction.

The dquot allocation path in xfs_qm_dqread() currently uses the
attribute set log reservation, which appears to be incorrect. We
have reports of transaction reservation overruns with the current
code. E.g., a repeated run of xfstests test generic/270 on a 512b
block size fs occassionally produces the following in dmesg:
XFS (sdN): xlog_write: reservation summary:
trans type = QM_DQALLOC (30)
unit res = 7080 bytes
current res = -632 bytes
total reg = 0 bytes (o/flow = 0 bytes)
ophdrs = 0 (ophdr space = 0 bytes)
ophdr + reg = 0 bytes
num regions = 0
XFS (sdN): xlog_write: reservation ran out. Need to up reservation
The dquot allocation case should consist of a write reservation
(i.e., we are allocating a range of the internal quota file) plus
the size of the actual dquots. We already have a log reservation
definition for this operation (tr_qm_dqalloc). Use it in
xfs_qm_dqread() and update the log reservation calculation function
to use the write res. calculation function rather than reading the
assumed to be pre-calculated value directly.

The VFS allows an anonymous temporary file to be named at a later
time via a linkat() syscall. The inodes for O_TMPFILE files are
are marked with a special flag I_LINKABLE and have a zero link count.
To support this in XFS, xfs_link() detects if this flag I_LINKABLE
is set and behaves appropriately when detected. So in this case,
its transaciton reservation takes into account the additional
overhead of removing the inode from the unlinked list. Then the
inode is removed from the unlinked list and the directory entry
is added. Finally its link count is bumped accordingly.

Add two functions xfs_create_tmpfile() and xfs_vn_tmpfile()
to support O_TMPFILE file creation.
In contrast to xfs_create(), xfs_create_tmpfile() has a different
log reservation to the regular file creation because there is no
directory modification, and doesn't check if an entry can be added
to the directory, but the reservation quotas is required appropriately,
and finally its inode is added to the unlinked list.

v5 filesystems use 512 byte inodes as a minimum, so read inodes in
clusters that are effectively half the size of a v4 filesystem with
256 byte inodes. For v5 fielsystems, scale the inode cluster size
with the size of the inode so that we keep a constant 32 inodes per
cluster ratio for all inode IO.
This only works if mkfs.xfs sets the inode alignment appropriately
for larger inode clusters, so this functionality is made conditional
on mkfs doing the right thing. xfs_repair needs to know about
the inode alignment changes, too.
Wall time:
create bulkstat find+stat ls -R unlink
v4 237s 161s 173s 201s 299s
v5 235s 163s 205s 31s 356s
patched 234s 160s 182s 29s 317s
System time:
create bulkstat find+stat ls -R unlink
v4 2601s 2490s 1653s 1656s 2960s
v5 2637s 2497s 1681s 20s 3216s
patched 2613s 2451s 1658s 20s 3007s
So, wall time same or down across the board, system time same or
down across the board, and cache hit rates all improve except for
the ls -R case which is a pure cold cache directory read workload
on v5 filesystems...
So, this patch removes most of the performance and CPU usage
differential between v4 and v5 filesystems on traversal related
workloads.
Note: while this patch is currently for v5 filesystems only, there
is no reason it can't be ported back to v4 filesystems. This hasn't
been done here because bringing the code back to v4 requires
forwards and backwards kernel compatibility testing. i.e. to
deterine if older kernels(*) do the right thing with larger inode
alignments but still only using 8k inode cluster sizes. None of this
testing and validation on v4 filesystems has been done, so for the
moment larger inode clusters is limited to v5 superblocks.
(*) a current default config v4 filesystem should mount just fine on
2.6.23 (when lazy-count support was introduced), and so if we change
the alignment emitted by mkfs without a feature bit then we have to
make sure it works properly on all kernels since 2.6.23. And if we
allow it to be changed when the lazy-count bit is not set, then it's
all kernels since v2 logs were introduced that need to be tested for
compatibility...

Currently the xfs_inode.h header has a dependency on the definition

Move all the btree format definitions from xfs_btree.h,
xfs_bmap_btree.h, xfs_alloc_btree.h and xfs_ialloc_btree.h to

xfs_trans.h has a dependency on xfs_log.h for a couple of
structures. Most code that does transactions doesn't need to know
anything about the log, but this dependency means that they have to
include xfs_log.h. Decouple the xfs_trans.h and xfs_log.h header
files and clean up the includes to be in dependency order.
In doing this, remove the direct include of xfs_trans_reserve.h from
xfs_trans.h so that we remove the dependency between xfs_trans.h and
xfs_mount.h. Hence the xfs_trans.h include can be moved to the
indicate the actual dependencies other header files have on it.

All of the buffer operations structures are needed to be exported
for xfs_db, so move them all to a common location rather than
spreading them all over the place. They are verifying the on-disk
format, so while xfs_format.h might be a good place, it is not part
of the on disk format.
Hence we need to create a new header file that we centralise these
related definitions. Start by moving the bffer operations
structures, and then also move all the other definitions that have
crept into xfs_log_format.h and xfs_format.h as there was no other
shared header file to put them in.

We've been seeing occasional problems with log space leaks and
transaction underruns such as this for some time:
XFS (dm-0): xlog_write: reservation summary:
trans type = FSYNC_TS (36)
unit res = 2740 bytes
current res = -4 bytes
total reg = 0 bytes (o/flow = 0 bytes)
ophdrs = 0 (ophdr space = 0 bytes)
ophdr + reg = 0 bytes
num regions = 0
Turns out that xfstests generic/311 is reliably reproducing this
problem with the test it runs at sequence 16 of it execution. It is
a 100% reliable reproducer with the mkfs configuration of "-b
size=1024 -m crc=1" on a 10GB scratch device.
The problem? Inode forks in btree format are logged in memory
format, not disk format (i.e. bmbt format, not bmdr format). That
means there is a btree block header being logged, when such a
structure is never written to the inode fork in bmdr format. The
bmdr header in the inode is only 4 bytes, while the bmbt header is
24 bytes for v4 filesystems and 72 bytes for v5 filesystems.
We currently reserve the inode size plus the rounded up overhead of
a logging a buffer, which is 128 bytes. That means the reservation
for a 512 byte inode is 640 bytes. What we can actually log is:
inode core, data and attr fork = 512 bytes
inode log format + log op header = 56 + 12 = 68 bytes
data fork bmbt hdr = 24/72 bytes
attr fork bmbt hdr = 24/72 bytes
So, for a v2 inodes we can log at least 628 bytes, but if we split that
inode over the end of the log across log buffers, we need to also
another log op header, which takes us to 640 bytes. If there's
another reservation taken out of this that I haven't taken into
account (perhaps multiple iclog splits?) or I haven't corectly
calculated the bmbt format space used (entirely possible), then
we will overun it.
For v3 inodes the maximum is actually 724 bytes, and even a
single maximally sized btree format fork can blow it (652 bytes).
And that's exactly what is happening with the FSYNC_TS transaction
in the above output - it's consumed 644 bytes of space after the CIL
context took the space reserved for it (2100 bytes).
This problem has always been present in the XFS code - the btree
format inode forks have always been logged in this manner. Hence
there has always been the possibility of an overrun with such a
transaction. The CRC code has just exposed it frequently enough to
be able to debug and understand the root cause....
So, let's fix all the inode log space reservations.
[ I'm so glad we spent the effort to clean up the transaction
reservation code. This is an easy fix now. ]

There is a bunch of code in xfs_bmap.c that is kernel specific and

xfs_bmap_util.c, and the declarations to xfs_bmap_util.h.
The biggest issue here is xfs_bmap_finish() - userspace has it's own
definition of this function, and so we need to move it out of
xfs_bmap.[ch]. This means several other files need to include
xfs_bmap_util.h as well.
It also introduces and interesting dance for the stack switching
code in xfs_bmapi_allocate(). The stack switching/workqueue code is
